Agreed that the tips are to far spread apart. The SLP Dual/Dual looks nice since they are closer together. I would be searching for something close to that.

Since its a camaro, I would say to either do dumps at the rear axle or a nice CME setup. Car looks great as it sits now though

+1 there! On a Camaro straight from the rear just about any tips look fine but from the side they all look horrible because you can easily see where the tips stop and the clamps or welds and such. so yeah CME or dumped gets my vote.

I think B&B would look best on ur car, love those tips

I went with the corsa dual tips. They look absolutly ridiculous sexy. Yet they are a little expensive. Check out http://www.afterthoughtsauto.com they had them. They are aroung 300 if I'm right.

To me most aftermarket tips on Camaros look like an afterTHOUGHT...

I like the factory tips because they make themselves centered and not as noticeable. GMMG's oval tips look decent as do the Mufflex tips but to be honest they all still look like their just hanging out in the middle of nowhere.

Once again, the Trans-Ams are just much more finished looking than our cars, rightly so since they are... Whether I sold them or not I'd still be highly recommending a CME to you...

Personally, I HATE stock CME tips, that's why I don't sell them. They look like they belong on a cheap model car to me. I like the stainless ones I sell (which is why I sell them ) because they sound better and look more industrial (which I personally like).

SO, I would recommend that setup. For those who want to "see" the tips and want a rolled edge I can't do that but I can offer a water jet piece of stainless you can have tigged on and it will look just like the edge the stock CME tips have.

Anyways, I digress. Point is I think CME would look killer on your car and if you want PM me privately and I'll hook you up because I know the headaches of doing the exhaust over and over on the same car

I forgot, I do also like B&B Tri-Flow... I think this is what Snuffles has... Whatever he has, they look good:
